Just thought they were cool.
I got 3 credits at the University @ buffalo toward my engineering degree (just graduated) for turboing my max, and this was included in my report. I just think its neat.

Very, very cool. Did you get a Mech E degree?

Unfortunately I got a Chem E degree and we didn't get to do anything remotely as cool to count for credit.

Ironically, now an old classmate and friend of mine, who also got a Chem E degree now runs a shop that specializes in custom turbos, and we're attempting to build a custom setup for my car. Hopefully it turns out as well as yours.

 

What program did you do that in? I've used Pro/E, Solid Edge, IDEAS, CATIA, and I think that's it.

I was snooping around one of the PCs in one of the labs at school a few years ago and found a CATIA file with a BMW M3 Exhaust manifold design in it. Just found that neat.

 

its auto cad 3d.
actually, i took a class last semester that was intended to teach me pro-E, but then i wound up working on my car ALL THE TIME!!! so i never went to class, didnt learn it, and wound up doing my final project in auto cad even though it was supposed to be in Pro, but my teacher didnt notice.
whew.

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET! But I could do without the pink piping on my car.

 

looks kind of like the work I used to do . 3d is fun to work with I designed a football stadium for my final back in school. Nice work car to design piping for the 02 maxima

 

I got out of taking the required Pro E class for my Civil degree because I was able to substitute a handdrafting class I took at a Jr. College. I use ACAD (sometimes MicroStation) on a daily basis. Only in 2D though. Nice job.
